Note: Collisions might occur if this step is performed while users are accessing data on the new file server. Please perform this step when users are not likely to be accessing the system (off-hours).

Note: Once mapping is complete, the agent GUI will show files 'syncing' - This is the GUI's display of the metadata rebuild process, not a re-sync of all of the data. Only new/changed files will sync, while the rest will simply be added in the local machines databases for metadata tracking.

Step 4: Decommission the Original File Server

Note: Before you decommission the original file server, you must remove mappings or unlink the desktop client installed on the server. If you decommission the original file server with active mappings, you will lose your Team Share data.

After the Team Shares are mapped to the new file server, you can decommission the original file server if needed. If users also access the original file server directly, you might also need to point these users to the new file server.
